Snæfellsjökull has revealed a secret; an artefact buried in the ice that no one can explain. When Claire is invited along to the excavation in her capacity as a glacial archaeologist, she leaps at the chance. With a recent break-up still very fresh in her mind, she needs a new start and hopes this is it. As the excavation progresses, Claire realises that this assignment is very different from what she imagined, and secrets are everywhere; not all of them buried.
As the ghosts of her past become enmeshed in her very dangerous present, who knows what will happen, and what further mysteries will be revealed?An outstanding Arctic tale of the supernatural, The Remnant certainly ramps up the chills.
